Getting sick can really wreck your Croatian trip--especially if you
have to hassle with bills. Medical insurance for your
holiday can pay off by bringing greater peace of mind.

If you're a citizen of the EU, the
European Health Insurance Card covers you for most
emergency medical care but it will not cover you for emergency
repatriation.

Citizens of other countries with national
health insurance should contact their embassy to find out if there
is a reciprocal agreement between their country and
Croatia for free emergency medical care;

American citizens should be aware that
Medicare and most private health insurance plans do not cover
any medical care in Croatia.

If you are injured in an automobile
accident, you may be covered through extra Personal Accident/Injury
(PAI) insurance. Holders of premium credit cards may also
be entitled to limited emergency medical coverage. Get the agreement
and read it carefully.

The best travel health insurance
policy covers for you all worst case scenarios such as an
accident requiring an emergency flight home (emergency repatriation).
Even better is a plan that makes payments directly to providers
overseas rather than one that reimburses you later for overseas health
expenditures.

If you have any health issues whatsoever,
you should certainly consider a travel insurance policy that covers
medical expenses.
